?Mobile reading At 10 p.m., Qin Feng drove Shu Ya Jing and Isabella to the shift-handover location.
Eight Zero E-book Upon meeting the leadership, the first thing she said was, "Has Qi made any move at all?"
"No," said He Muqing, her face firm. "That man truly remains composed. Throughout the entire day, aside from meals and TV, he even took a short stroll, greeting familiar neighbors with a perfectly normal demeanor."
"What should we do now?" he asked.
He smiled and said, "You're always so observant—how could something so minor surprise you? Let's find a place and have a proper meal. After staying here all day, we're truly exhausted!"
After the two women left, Isabella also vanished from the car. Shu, the young detective, blushed slightly and asked, "Shall we just stay here watching, or... or... like we did yesterday?" Qin, the young noble, wrapped his arms around her slender waist and gave her delicate face a passionate kiss. "Of course, we'll book a room with a comfortable, spacious bed. But before that, we'll need to observe a bit—after all, that's part of our job, hehe!" Shu, with a graceful, seductive glance, replied, "You're just lucky—every day you end up with a different beautiful woman in bed. If it weren't for Sister Sha, would you ever have this much ease?" "Hehe, I feel lucky too," he added, kissing her again, then looking up at the windows of Qi Tongtu's house and murmuring, "He's just too cautious. Staying vigilant like this won't work. I'll have to force him to reveal himself!" "How?" asked the detective.
He smirked and said, "It's simple—threaten, kidnap, or use any other method. After all, the seal of the emperor is so valuable; how could a small-time head of a security company possibly afford it?"
The policewoman gave him a solid slap: "Your approach is absolutely lacking. Threatening and kidnapping are legal actions!"
"Isn't stealing also illegal?" Qin, the young magnate, countered. "We've almost certainly established that Mr. Qi is directly involved in the theft of the seal. Yet, we're constantly held back by so-called evidence. It's precisely because you insist that without evidence, action cannot be taken that the perpetrators feel secure and unconcerned!"
Shu, the policewoman, conceded: "Alright, I don't oppose your proposal, but I don't fully agree with it. And when you take action, please don't involve me. After all, I'm a police officer by training—how can I possibly commit legal violations?"
Qin, the younger brother, shrugged, thinking that his brother had never really intended to take him along. By the time they reached the hotel, after a fierce battle, would she even have the strength to get out of bed? At eleven o'clock, Qi Tongtu turned off the lights and went to sleep, while the two of them headed to check into the hotel room. From the shower stall in the bathroom, the sink, the writing desk and lounge chairs, to the large bed, and even the carpet, every surface bore the marks of their passionate struggle. Shu Yajing, being a police officer by training, had a stronger physical build than an average woman—tall, with supple skin and a touch of wildness. Her long legs tightly wrapped around his waist, absorbing each impact. Qin, of course, grew more determined with every passing moment, and after over an hour, he finally won her over. When he lifted her from the carpet and laid her gently on the large bed, she was already exhausted and asleep. Qin smiled happily, began dressing himself, and headed off to scare the one named Qi.
Twenty minutes later, a figure passed through the window and entered Qi Tongtu's home.
Qi, who had been restless all night, was tossing and turning in bed, only to catch a glimpse of someone sitting on the chair across from him as he turned over.
At first, he thought it was a hallucination—having not slept well for several days, and with his age, he had been a bit foggy during the day, often confused when walking around, so it was quite normal for him to experience hallucinations at night.
He closed his eyes for a few seconds, mentally resolving that when he opened them again, the hallucination would have vanished.
But when he opened them, the figure on the chair was still there.
He shivered with surprise and was about to sit up when the person on the chair spoke, in a cold tone:
"If you don't want to die, just lie there and stay still. Since I was able to enter without being noticed, taking your life is nothing short of easy."
Qi Tongtu’s heart raced, his body trembling as he spoke in a shaky voice: “Friend, we have no grudge against each other. Why come at this hour? If it’s for money, there are several thousand dollars in the second drawer of the bedside cabinet—take them and leave right away!”
“Hahahaha, several thousand dollars and you expect to send me away? Your plans are quite well thought out.” Qin Feng chuckled.
Qi Tongtu quickly added: “I’m just a regular worker, earning only a modest salary each month… Besides the money in the bedside cabinet, there’s a little savings on my card—I can give you the PIN. Just a few hundred meters east of the building, there’s an ATM.”
Qin Feng interrupted him: “You’ve secured a treasure worth several hundred million—how can several thousand dollars send you away? That’s quite an imaginative idea!”
Qi Tongtu’s face changed: “What treasure? I don’t understand…”
Swish—
A dagger descended from the ceiling, piercing the quilt before him and driving straight into the bed frame.
"Are you really that kind of person who'd rather die than lose money?" Qin Feng's tone grew even colder. "If you want to die, just keep pretending you don't know what's going on!" "I truly don't have the treasures you mentioned..." "Very well. If it wasn't you who stole them, then there's no need to keep you alive." He stood up from his chair and pressed the dagger against Qi Tongtu's neck. The blade sliced into his skin, and Qi Tongtu's heart sank to his throat. He quickly pleaded, "Let's talk—don't kill me, let's talk!" "What's there to talk about?" Qin Feng tightened his grip, positioning the blade with precision—avoiding blood vessels and the trachea. Even if it cut deeper, it wouldn't threaten Qi Tongtu's life.
But Qi Tong Hui didn't know that the cold edge of the dagger sent him trembling, making him fear he would surely be cut throat—so he quickly said, "The treasure was stolen by me together with others, though I only provided support; the mastermind is someone else, and he has only agreed to pay me four million yuan as compensation..." Four million yuan, for a jade seal of incalculable value, amounted to barely one percent of its total worth. Yet for someone earning only a few thousand yuan a month, it was a substantial sum—enough to excite many. "Four million? I still don't see it as anything remarkable," Qin Feng drew the dagger back slightly and said, "All I need is to know the name of the person you've been working with, and then I'll let you live!" "I don't know him."
As soon as the sentence "Qi Tongtu" came out, he felt the dagger pressing in slightly again and quickly said, "I really don't know him. He has always been in touch with me via text messages. At first, I ignored him, thinking he was a scammer. Later, he transferred thirty thousand yuan to my bank account as a deposit. Then, following his instructions, I took action step by step."
